Nigerian billionaire businessman and renowned philanthropist Tony Elumelu has taken to social media to celebrate a monumental milestone—his beloved mother, Chief Mrs. Suzanne Elumelu, has turned 97 years old.

On April 24th, 2025, the UBA chairman shared a touching tribute and a photo of his mother on his verified Instagram page, honoring her incredible life, legacy, and unwavering influence on his own success.

In his simple yet heartfelt message, he wrote:

“Happy 97th Birthday to my dear mother 🎊.”


A Woman of Strength, Impact, and Community

Chief Mrs. Suzanne Elumelu is more than just the matriarch of one of Nigeria’s most influential families—she is a respected figure in her own right. A successful businesswoman, restaurateur, and major distributor, she raised her children with a firm hand and a strong sense of purpose.

Tony Elumelu has often credited his mother with instilling in him the core values that have shaped his global business empire: discipline, hard work, entrepreneurship, generosity, and integrity.

Her Legacy of Generosity in Delta State

In her hometown of Onicha-Uku, Delta State, Chief Mrs. Suzanne Elumelu is fondly remembered for her compassion and selflessness. During the severe water crisis of the 1980s, she opened her private borehole to the entire community, allowing villagers to collect clean water from her home free of charge. Her act of kindness made a lasting impact and further solidified her reputation as a pillar of the community.

As she celebrates her 97th year, Chief Mrs. Suzanne Elumelu remains a symbol of strength, resilience, and grace—a true inspiration to generations of Nigerians.
